Saying goodbye

Authors POV

Tracing the outlines of the dark walls with dizziness and confusion. Jolts of pain rushed through her whole body with staggering breathing. Her once green orbs of life now mixing with a purplish colour, taking over the poor red headed girls eyes. Her body drowning in pain and can be shown thoroughly on her physical appearance. A gash laid waste on her stomach, which was exploding with what looked like shining glimpses of energy covered over with loosely formed clothing and a blanket, but the light still penetrated through the covers. The poor girls skin was as pale as a ghost.

An elderly woman with white hair was reading an old book that she had picked up on a nearby desk in the dark room, occasionally looking up at the young girl.

''Go back to sleep'' she says in a gentle tone, but the girl winces by the thoughts of what has occurred.

''K-K- Kev-'' the girl begins to speak but is cut off by the elderly woman's voice.

''shhhhh Gwendolyn, now go back to sleep'' the woman says with a small amount of annoyance as she walks up to the youth. The woman begins to brush her face lightly with a soft delicate hand, cradling the young girls cheek softly. The girl begins to shift a bit trying to get up, but winces and falls back down slowly with the help of the elderly woman. The young youth soon begins to fall asleep from the pain and stress of trying to get up ''Kevin'' she finally says before the darkness takes over, her mind reflecting on what has occurred only just a few days ago.

Gwen's POV

I wake up in the morning after the dream. Where was Kevin and Ben? They haven't visited in so long. What about my parents? I haven't seem them in so long. I pull my knees to my body; I look down at the long white sleeves dangling over my hands. I sigh, and notice I'm wearing gloves. They're glowing just like my socks, a faint light glistening out of the darkness. Upon instinct I tear them off and look down at my once pale hands. They were glowing a violet colour, I pull down my sleeves noticing a sharp trail of violet light, it covers my entire fore arm and keeps going. I rush to take off my socks it was the exact it story except I had no freakin toes. I try to wiggle them but I could only see my foot bend and twist. For feet they felt extremely lightweight. Probably cause antodytes are only mad of energy. I pull up my trouser pants and notice the violet colour stretching up passes my knees and keeps going. "oh man" I sigh and run my violet fingers through my dark red hair, it didn't feel like hair "oh no". i run to the mirror but stumble and trip. My legs felt so weak, like I had not moved for at least a week. I slowly make my way up from the ground, my desk helping me with each movement. I let out another sigh, noticing my voice sounding multi dimensional.

"why haven't I noticed that until now" I shake my head and stand up slowly. I turn and look at myself in the mirror, my body a complete shade of glowing purple, and my eyes a glowing white. Everything looked so different. I could feel all the life forces around me, everything seemed so full of life, so happy, "this is so cool" I thought to myself. My grandmother was no where in sight, another plus. I smile and notice the glowing white teeth and the purple glowing tongue. "that's gonna take a while to get used to" I think to myself. feeling kinda stupid I remove the clothing and made my way over to my bed, folding the neatly at the end of it. I sat next to them for a while. Looking at my curtains, clasping my hands. Last time I even tried touching grandma looked like she was gonna kill me. Deciding to go against her I opened the curtains and looked outside. It was amazing. All the colours looked so bright, so shinny, so wonderful. A person may have thought you to be high, if you ever had to describe it to them. I really wanted to go outside. Trying hopelessly to unlock and lift the window open was hopeless. Antodytes have no nails looking at the tips, instead they had something kinda resembled claws, like witches hands or sharpened fingers, not sharp enough to really scratch a person I thought to myself.

I heard a knock at the door and immediately turned my full attention to it. "hey kiddo", I could see my grandma's head sneak it the room. I turned to her and smiled quickly crashing a hug into her. "at least we know nothings wrong with your powers" she chuckles patting on my head. I just smile at her, not ready to here my voice in front of people. She grabs my hand and pulls me out of the room

"common kiddo, time to say goodbye"

"goodbye?" I question her in multi voices.

"Of course kiddo, we have to go to Antodyne"

"why can't we just stay?" I question her once more.

"I'm sorry, kiddo, but this just isn't where we belong" I didn't know what to say, instead I just nodded my head. She dragged me down stairs where I could see my parents and grandpa waiting for me. "I guess they never told my aunt and uncle" I thought walking down stairs.

"Mum, Dad" I smash into them making them fall and me along with them. I couldn't believe how fast I flew, but I didn't care. They stared dumbstruck at me. "Now I know how Kevin felt when he was turned into a monster" I thought to myself. Grandpa pulled me off of me and gave me a hug. It didn't take him much energy to pull me up. He pulled me into one of the tightest hugs I've ever had. I returned the favour by resting my head on his chest. I wasn't able to wrap my arms around him. He eventually released me. He walked away from me and picked something off from the coffee table. "close your eyes" he said to me in a calming tone. I felt something grip my waist then release it. "k open them" I saw him smiling at me, I look down at my waist and notice a silver/ metal belt hanging from my waist I noticed a plumbers badge in the middle of it. "just in case you ever want to talk to us" he kisses me on my forehead chuckles a bit then walks over to Verdona.

"take care of her Verdona", he whispers into her ear and kisses her. I smile then turn back to my parents. My mum looked annoyed and upset at the same time and my dad looked worried to death. He notices me looking at them and smiles warmingly walking over to me, hugging me and pulling me over to the couch. He cradles me like a child and I clutch my fingers onto his shirt. I close my eyes and the couch moves down a bit, causing a weight shift I looked over my left shoulder and notice my mum sitting next to me. She pulls me in for a hug and starts crying. I feel a few drops run down my right shoulder but I ignore it. I feel a hand lightly press right where my ribs were. I look up at my mother, tears still rolling down her eyes. I felt like I was going to cry, I wish I could, I don't even think Antodytes have tear glands. For something that didn't have a lot of emotions, they still had a lot to show for it. "where's Ben and Kevin" I mutter. "I don't know sweetheart, they just didn't show up" he says bringing me in for another hug. I lean on my parents for a while, just curling up to them.

"Gwendolyn" I look up to see my grandmother staring at me "yeah" I mumble to her no longer happy to see her any more. "we're leaving tonight so you can spend the day with you're parents" she smiles at me and I smile back. "Thankyou" I say back to her and cradle up against my parents. One last time.

Scene change

I was left hovering over the lake, my grandmother was trying to teach me to fly so I could get to Antodyne. She said I was doing a pretty good job at it, for an Antodite not properly trained. "you ready" she asked. I looked around for a second, just thinking about what im leaving behind. I sighed and turned back to her. "yeah" I tell her slightly disappointed Kevin nor Ben had never even said goodbye to me. I place my hands in her. She closes her eyes and I do the same we concentrate on the manner around us, in that second it all turns black
